What happens when two longtime friends—TV host & journalist Natalie Morales (The Today Show, Access Hollywood, The Talk) and Kit Hoover—finally sit down to spill the tea on everything they nevertalked about before? Pure magic. 

Today’s episode is real, raw, and ridiculously fun—just two girlfriends catching up and dishing on career twists, hilarious behind-the-scenes moments, and the unexpected things that bring them joy (hint: horses, wine, and letting go of perfection).

Some of Our Favorite Moments:

“What are we waiting for?” – Natalie talks about making the bold move from NYC to LA, inspired by Kit, and realizing that the perfect time never comes—you just have to jump.

“I feed my therapist hay.” – Natalie opens up about her deep connection with horses and how they’ve taught her to let go, trust, and be present.

“Don’t underestimate me.” – For years, she was told she wasn’t “Latina enough” or that she didn’t have the right news “edge.” Natalie shares how she finally found her voice and learned to ask for what she deserved.

“Forget hair, makeup, and glamour.” – Advice for aspiring journalists? Be ready for 3 AM wake-up calls, working weekends, and rolling your own teleprompter—because that’s the real grind.

“Give me wine, cheese, and chocolate, and I’ll talk for days!” – Natalie reveals her go-to indulgences and her undeniable love for a good hangout session.

“Laugh at yourself more.” – Even now, she admits she’s her own toughest critic. But she’s learning to let go, internalize less, and embrace the joy.

“Sleep. Turns. Me. On.” – Forget the fancy answers. A solid night’s sleep is what gets Natalie feeling her best! (Relatable, right?!)

“I’ve just started manifesting.” – While she doesn’t know exactly what’s next, one thing is for sure—Natalie is creating space for new opportunities and FUN.

This isn’t just another interview—it’s two besties getting real about reinvention, change, and finding clarity in life’s pivots. If you’ve ever thought about making a big life move, chasing a dream, or just wondering what’s next, this one’s for you.
